No idea. 90 miles to go before I break even with the cost of the Forge at $1/mile.

No clue.

I used to keep track of this stuff with daily totals and charts and graphs of trends.

Now I don't even make a note of it monthly. I guess I could work backwards from the odometers and get a total for the last four years... which would be pretty lame.

Not sure what it is since Jan 1st, but I have done around 2500 miles in my first year of cycling (since last April). These are purely commuting miles.

I'm doing more this year because I have got rid of my car. Otherwise I may have wimped out on Wednesday due to the gale force headwind.

I've ridden 1,637 total miles so far in 2009, about 788 of that while commuting.

BTW, there is a sticky thread at the top of this forum for 2009 mileage to date. That thread is for commuting miles only.

Ah, you meant miles. I thought maybe you wanted the running total of cookies consumed. Good thing too because I can't count that high.

Since beginning commuting about 5 years ago, I've put 17059 miles on my bike. All commuting, I don't have time for recreational riding.

About 400 miles, given Buffalo winters I'm happy with it, but I'm ready to crank that up considerably now.

My computer's battery died about a week and a half ago so for me it is 170 plus a random large number of my choosing.

Mostly commuting but a few miles for brevets (4 200k and one 400k)

I am up to 203 hours.. On wednesday I ended my ride with 199 hours 59 minutes and 36 seconds for the year.
